History

El Greco was disdained by the immediate generations after his death because his work was opposed in many respects to the principles of the early baroque style which came to the fore near the beginning of the 17th century and soon supplanted the last surviving traits of the 16th-century Mannerism.[1] The painter was deemed incomprehensible and had no important followers[4] Only his son and a few unknown painters produced weak copies of El Greco's works. Later 17th- and early 18th-century Spanish commentators praised his skill but criticized his anti-naturalistic style and his complex iconography. Some of these commentators, such as Antonio Palomino and Céan Bermúdez described his mature work as "contemptible", "ridiculous" and "worthy of scorn".[5] The views of Palomino and Bermúdez were frequently repeated in Spanish historiography, adorned with terms such as "strange", "queer", "original", "eccentric" and "odd".[6] The phrase "sunk in eccentricity", often encountered in such texts, in time became his "madness".

Explain the causes and effects of european immigration in the late 1800s.
Goryan [66]

Answer:

In the nineteenth century, the United States experienced a significant surge in the influx of immigrants - over the course of several decades, about fifteen million people arrived in the country; such a large number of people wishing to start a new life across the ocean was largely due to the political and economic instability that prevailed in Europe at that time.

In the mid-nineteenth century, again a significant influx of immigrants seeking overseas ‘salvation’ from economic and political instability in their homeland came from France and Germany; aggressive German politics before the outbreak of war forced many to seek refuge in the USA.

At the end of the 19th century, Italy, previously modestly represented in the New World, was left by several hundred thousand people.

In 1891, the Immigration Service was established in the United States, and in January 1892, an immigration office was opened on Ellis Island, New York - its tasks were to verify the identity and health of citizens arriving in the country, and determine their future fate - what way they were going to live in the country, whether they have friends or relatives, etc. Resistance to immigration at the end of the 19th century intensified at the level of part of the American public, who did not want foreign workers who received lower wages to take the place of American citizens.
